This past week the American Film Institute showed snippets of the 100 greatest films ever made. Niel and I hadn't seen nearly any of them, we reviewed the list and decided that by the end of this year we would view the ones we hadn't. Below is the list and the ones in bold are ones we have both seen. After we see one we'll write up a little review and post them on our sites. A fun project.

Reading that list makes me realize just how many of those I haven't seen.
I'm thrilled that Goodfellas and Pulp Fiction made the list. Those are two of my favorite movies ever!
